** Due to finishing up some technical revisions of the FuseBox Radio Studios & outside travel, folks weren't able to record a brand new episode up as quickly as we would like with new music and talk. However, we wanted to give our listeners something to listen to with a flashback episode or 2 via our podcast feed in the meantime...enjoy the musical goodness! - DJ Fusion **

This is a flashback episode of the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast with DJ Fusion & Ausar Ra Black Hawk for the weeks of April 19 & 26, 2017 (originally broadcast on the week of February 1, 2012) with some new and classic Hip-Hop & Soul Music, news and commentary.

Our extended commentary during that week touched base on the passing of Don Cornelius (the creator of the pioneering "Soul Train" TV show & more), the recent Susuan G. Komen for the Cure Foundation vs. Planned Parenthood scenario & the importance of social media + more with that news story, the tin-ear/poverty deaf recent comments from the Republican Party Presidential candidate Mitt Romney, the religious foolery of Bishop Eddie Long and some other diverse topics here and there.

There were Free Press "Media Minutes" & Black Agenda Report mini-segments on this week's episode.

  The commentary during that week (over the phone due to the Black Hawk being out of town) during the show touched base on updates regarding the death of Freddie Gray in Baltimore, MD and it's after effects in the area (the #BaltimoreUprising, riots and why they occur, political and mainstream media responses & actions, etc.), Chicago & the exposed history of police brutality in Holman Square, the Mayweather vs. Paciquao boxing match and how folks reacted to it that were and were not fans of the sport (or the individuals in play), “Deflategate” and the NFL, the passing of singer/songwriters Ben E. King & Errol Brown (of Hot Chocolate), jazz musician Bob James suing Madlib for sample clearance issues and some other things here and there.

  Our extended commentary during that week after being back from some illness from the past 2 weeks touched base on the crazy winter weather in the U.S., net neutrality finally passing via the FCC in the United States (for now), the FOX soap opera "Empire" becoming a huge thing in current popular culture and our feelings on how the TV series has developed & Black broadcast TV at large, the passing of actor Leonard Nimoy & basketball player Anthony Mason, actress Monique talking about being blackballed in Hollywood & issues with director Lee Daniels, various Grammys & Oscar Award controversies from this year (with Kanye West's "Artist of the Year" complaint, Beyonce singing the lead song from the movie "Selma" instead of the original artist Ledisi, Patricia Arquette's terribly misguided backstage statements, etc.) and some other things here and there. There is no new new Black Agenda Report segment on this week's show due to our extended commentary.
